SoupFarm — Restaurant in Missoula

Soup Farm was much better than we anticipated after reading some of the poor reviews I was skeptical but loved the look of the place from the outside so we decided to go for it. The soup was very tasty and felt nourishing and healthy to eat (we got the tomato and fennel). I also loved the soup sized and prices, including the fact that you could get all the way up 32 oz. of soup so if you're looking to feed a few people with a healthy meal for a decent price it is a good method to do so. The sandwich I got was the Jerk Marinated Sando. Being called "marinated" the meat was a little bit dry, but I'm willing to give them the benefit of the doubt that it had been there for a little bit and it can be hard to work with marinated meat in a small restaurant environment. Otherwise, the flavors and mouth feel of the sandwich as a whole were fantastic. All the items on the sandwich tasted fresh and paired well together, and the bread was very nice. Other than the food, the inside of the restaurant was very clean and nicely laid out. My only problem was that the drink options were lacking accessibility, meaning that there were few options and a little pricey. I love that they had local kombucha but just wish they had more options whether it being their own type of fountain lemonade, iced tea, or a soda fountain of sorts, though I understand that while they customer volume currently seems less than what would make a fountain drink system worth it. Otherwise, their menu seemed fresh and innovative while still being very simple to follow so I praise them for that. I would recommend Soup Farm for anybody looking for a good quick bite to try before they get too busy, because they will get busier as more people discover how pleasant of an experience...

This is my second time visiting the soup farm. I really wanted to like it both times- in fact, i took myself here today after a hard day as a treat and ordered 3 different soups to try so that i can have some for dinner tonight as well.

The lemon chicken orzo, broccoli cheddar, and leek potato were ALL individually underwhelming. The broccoli soup has a great texture and you can tell its homemade and fresh- but the flavor is seriously a miss. It does not taste cheesy at all, and was severely lacking in salt- so much so that it really tasted more like water and cream than anything else.

I have to say the same about the potato leek- except even the texture was off with this one. Its very thin and watery, and i needed to add a decent amount of salt to this as well (i NEVER salt my food and i cook almost all of my meals at home, so this is not an issue with being addicted to high sodium processed foods).

Lastly, the lemon chicken orzo. The only real flavor profile here is a bit of fresh herbs (which are delicious, btw) but the broth itself was extremely underwhelming and lacked both lemon and chicken flavor- again, tasting more like water than soup broth.

I thought that by ordering 3 of their more popular soups today that id surely find a favorite or 2 and be back for a 32 oz portion, but sadly, I am mostly just upset that i spent $17 on 3 poorly executed soups that I can certainly make better by myself at home..

soup farm, i want to love you. I really do, and for that i say keep trying, take these negative reviews constructively, and I will keep coming back and hoping things...

Delicious food although a bit over-priced for the amount or portion size. Comparable to Panera, with BETTER FLAVORS! Also, they do not have a combo option where you could have 2 items as a balanced meal. Example; 1/2 soup or salad and 2/2 half or whole sandwich. The cost for 2 people was $28.00 @ 17.00 & 11.00 per person. I was satisfied with the flavors but did not get full @11.00 for 5oz corn chowder soup bowl & Thai carrot ginger salad. This was only my 2nd time there, I will return. However next time I will get it to go because it seemed we got bigger portions in our togo order. Idk? *Also they are so AWESOME AND ENVIRONMENTALLY CONSCIOUS that they use "Actual" silverware as opposed to plastic, even for Togo orders. That being said, We customers are encouraged to return silverware if and when possible. I LOVE THAT! I might even ask next time if they accept donations of silverware? Stop by and...
